There are better coffee shops in town that feel cleaner, are more welcoming, and have great coffee. It's a shame too, because it is in a perfect location off the square. We tried several times, but they lost us as customers. May check back from time to time to see if they clean up their act and focus on excellent, welcoming service.

Coffee is always good although sometimes the consistency of the taste may be slightly off sometimes. But if you understand coffee and pulling espresso shots there can be very fine nuances that change depending on the grind, temp, time, and even the barista can affect the way a shot is made/tastes. So I'm not upset that it's not the same every time. It just shows that this is the real deal. I enjoy the Breve here and the Chai Tea is solid too. The blended drinks are always good too. We've tried the spicy cayenne pepper drink and it was too much spice. I know it can be done as I've had it at a different coffee shop and it had just the right amount of kick. But this could be very subjective as everyone's spice level is different. All around Hive is a great choice for local coffee in Shelby and they have another location near downtown right next to MiPubs Mexican restaurant.

What stood out the most was that unlike a shop we visited yesterday (I won't name it, but it's in Hickory), my son wasn't followed around by the owner/staff like he was up to no good (my son is 2 months shy of 7 at the time of this, and he kept his hands in his pockets most of the time, so I'm not sure why that person felt the need to make me uncomfortable by following my kid and getting wide-eyed every time he pointed to something or touched anything). We felt very welcome at Got Books, and I look forward to going back! Also, the coffee is great!

Hardly any donuts left. They don't make them at this location which is bad for them because when they run out that's it! I love french crullers and they had none. My next choice was a jelly donut, one raspberry one left! I don't know what location makes these but people like to have some filling inside!!! This had maybe a smear of jelly inside! I was halfway through the donut and had no jelly at all! Then finally a smidge and it was gone. A donut place with a limited number of donuts left and it wasn't that late. No back up racks at all, no extra donuts, nothing! And the shelves were getting pretty bare and limited pickings!! The girl said they go fast. Hello??? Then whoever the owner is they should get some extra for back up!?! Personally this visit did it for me. I don't think I'd be wasting my time or money to stop here again.
